Hi All Rotary\'s in the north west, Who fancy\'s a convoy to Rotorstock 9   this year most likely do the same route as last year M6 South. So I will start the ball rolling and see what happens.

I\'ve sorted my brake problem out so at least I should be ok with the FD, the rears where binding, put fresh ones on and then had a nightmare bleeding the system. All the parts to sort it never turned up as well !

Yeah still got your number mate. If I don\'t see you in the convoy then I\'ll probably be found spinning off the sprint track!

Hi guys,

Driving from cheshire to birmingham early to have all tyres changed to FEDERAL 595 RSR semi slicks. Might have to travel to birmingham on my own and pickup the convoy from M6/M1 somewhere....

What time are you all planning on meeting at Knutsford so I an estimate your passing time, say junction 7 M6?
Title: Rotorstock 9 Convoy From North West
Post by: marcusd666 on August 14, 2012, 02:39:33 PM
Last year we met at Knutsford services around about 07:00am to 07:30 If that\'s ok.
Title: Rotorstock 9 Convoy From North West
Post by: Jus on August 14, 2012, 02:51:01 PM
well that seems fine, I will be at junction 7 M6, birmingham about 8:30ish and done for 9ish rejoining motorway about 9ish which by my calulations misses you guys by about 20mins, no worries I will catch you all up later, unless you\'re delayed leaving.

We only trundle down anyway, you will more than likely catch us up !

To be fair it takes around 30 second for Shaun to make camp anyway. All he has to do is chuck his tent and it fold up by itself. All he has to do is peg it into the ground. Job done!
Title: Rotorstock 9 Convoy From North West
Post by: TiddlesRX7 on August 17, 2012, 11:58:54 AM
Oh and looks like Ash will be making it again now. Think we are gonna day trip it though. He has also threatend to take the Skyline on the sprint track. Looks like he\'s gonna try and steel my spin off crown!
Title: Rotorstock 9 Convoy From North West
Post by: shaunwil on August 17, 2012, 03:06:48 PM
I\'m not bringing the chuck up tent this time, got the 5 man from last year. Got some bacon and bread. And beer :D Will bring tea making stuff too so we should be fine !

Forecast has got a lot better but it depends how wet the ground is.
